YouTube for iOS and Android is getting a dark mode

YouTube is adding a new dark theme to its mobile apps, starting with iOS today. To activate the new theme, simply tap the account icon, go to settings, select dark theme, and enjoy the new look.

YouTube previously added a dark mode to its desktop site last year, and the company says since then, its become one of the most requested features for its mobile apps. As the name implies, the dark theme inverts some colors on the YouTube UI, swapping out the white background of the standard theme for a more cinematic, blacked-out style.

The dark theme should be rolling out to iOS users today. An Android version of the update is coming soon.
